New watering can.

Hi All,

I am in need at a couple of watering cans. My current one has a screw on plastic pipe and it has split. Preferably want 10l with an option to buy a fine rose to water seedlings in GH.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Seems they are all one piece plastic types these days with push on rose.

Argos seems to have this one available/deliverable but think you will have to go to a garden /diy place to find an additional fine rose that fits or look on Amazon /ebay, though knowing if they will fit is the problem, but some are a rubber type multifit

You must be a big stong guy if you are using 10L cans for seedlings on the bench, makes my hands ache just thinking about lifting that up !

 

Thanks Ricky 101. When seedlings are very young I use an old 2l pop bottle with a fines screw on spray end. When they get bigger into pots I use a watering can, but my old rose applied it a bit to heavy for my liking.

I have a 2 gallon one I bought from a local garden centre with quite a gentle watering rose attachment, touch of rust on the handles after 7 years of use but hey. I think a garden centre would be the ideal option as you could see the can in the flesh and get a better idea of how sturdy it is. For things that don't require a rose I just use my vintage 1.5 gallon Beldray can. There's this one at Screwfix but it's a tad larger than what you're after and they don't deliver, good reviews and pretty cheap tho!
